Electronic Gearing printer friendly
Electronic gearboxes allow a Motion Coordinator to simulate the motion that might be mechanically performed using a gearbox. Electronic gearboxes are the simplest type of “linked motion” that Trio Motion Coordinators can execute. With “linked motion” a motor axis is program linked to the measured position of another axis rather than using a timebase. Constructing gearboxes electronically is easy and offers great flexibility to machine builders.
